| Having grown up in NYC and remembering the lower West Side as an area not worth seeing, it was a nice surprise to tour Chelsea Market, taste a variety of superior foods, and then see Mario's and Morimoto's restaurants, in addition to seeing a West Village townhouse. It helped immensely that our guide, Kurt, was knowledgeable and enthusiastic. We experienced a complete lunch of varied and fresh, well prepared and delicious foods while making the rounds of many interesting and different stores. We have already recommended this tour to our friends in the New York area and those from here who are going to visit NYC.

| As an ex-New Yorker, I can be somewhat jaded about tours since I don't consider myself a "tourist" even though I no longer live in the area. I had always wanted to tour the Chelsea Market and Meatpacking District but had never gotten around to doing it. The Foods of NY tour fit my schedule and my wallet nicely so I decided to give it a try. What a wonderful decision! The guide was full of information, enthusiasm and helpful hints. I loved every minute -and every bite- of it!! I highly recommend this tour for anyone- visitor and resident alike. |

| Recently had family (brother and sister in law with teenage nephew) in town who are true foodies. Big Iron Chef fans etc. We had a great time sampling the various "flavors" the chelsea market has to offer. As locals we enjoyed the historical aspect of the tour. I felt the tour had something to offer everyone in the group. Size of the group was perfect, guide was fantastic. Certainly would consider participating in another local foodie tour offered through your company. |

| I recently took two friends from out of town on the Chelsea Market/Meatpacking District tour. I wondered, at first, how we were going to fill up the three hours of the tour. Any apprehensions quickly went out the window upon meeting our guide, Kurt. From start to finish, Kurt was an amazing guide. His knowledge, personability, and sense of humor made for an incredible enjoyable experience.
The tour itself was packed with great food and was structured very well. Just enough time was spent at each stop and the "menu" progressed well, especially the gelato before venturing into the outdoor portion of the tour on our particularly humid NYC day.
I would recommend this tour to anyone, tourist or local. Where else in NY can you get entertainment, information, and great food at such a low price? |

| Our tour guide, Cindy, was knowledgeable and fun. We learned much about the area and the concept of Chelsea Market, and were able to sample foods from many of the shops. Great tour! |

| Enjoyed the food, the guide, the history, the sites, the walk...did I mention the food? We really enjoyed the food. This is our second Foods of New York tour and we highly recommend the tour company. |

| the tour is interesting and the guide is fun, but the amount of food is clearly insufficient and overall it does not represent great value for money. |
